Big change is coming....

Well I decided to join the masses and create my very own blog so you can all a share in the agony of our big move to Alberta.

Jeff is now living in Edmonton with his buddy, Troy (thanks, Buddy-Troy!!) so he can get things ready for Annabel and I to come up in a few short weeks. He interviewed with a few companies on Monday and made a decision to work for Effix Interiors--he started today and texted me at coffee to say that he thinks he made the right choice! Woo hoo! That's one stressor down!
Next he has the task of finding us a home. There are a few places that we've been looking at online and one place that he found right next door to Troy's house. I've got my fingers crossed for the house next to Troy's. It sounds good AND the rent is awesome! We'll hopefully know more about it tonight.

In the meantime, Annabel and I are doing ok on our own. There is lots to do around here. I've been packing a bit at a time and cleaning as I go. It has opened my eyes to how way to big this place is for us. Too many places to tuck stuff away, which results in too much junk! The dump has become my favorite hang out lately since i've been purging from each room. My brother, Steve, has agreed to let me load up his truck with junk and make another run. I'm sure there will be at least 3 more.

Still need to finish the tile in the kitchen and do some touch up paint here and there but other than that, I think things are moving along quite well.

I miss Jeff terribly but I know time will pass very quickly. There are only 6-1/2 weeks till we make the move....really not that long from now.
